Oh ok.
I like having one site to go to in order to see the only two games I follow, all together, on one page.

Looks like my TL+ doesn't carry over to LiquidDota atm (it does carry over to LiquidHearth), looks awesome otherwise.

How successful would you guys say it has been for the Hearthstone site? I really feel like if there's anything that will be the downfall of teamliquid, I think it's ones like these. You may be right, and I'll warm up to it eventually. But after this change, being someone who used to play/watch Starcraft 1&2 a lot, and switched to Dota, I am looking for a different Dota community to be a part of. Looking at the Hearthstone site, there feels to be no sense of community, and I would expect that it would be very similar for a new Dota 2 site.

Strongly against this decision. Ah well, nothing I can do. Pretty much this. It was nice being able to jump around and check it everything all in one website. Sounds like a petty complaint but just turns me off I suppose.
As long as you're speaking for yourself it makes sense. There are a lot of people who don't follow both games.

I'll make a post with some of the main points, hang on.

Good luck to all Dota fans! We have LiquidHeart already.
But more important for me: Can we expect LiquidStarcraft and LiquidSmash soon?

Yeah but now all the community stuff is for Starcraft-only users?

What is wrong with filtering like it was done in the top right? Anyone who has spent a week or more on teamliquid will know about it.
Please please revert this change ): I didn't think it was good for Hearthstone, but I didn't say anything since Hearthstone didn't interest me that much. Dota is something I actually care about, and I really think it's a big mistake.

Well I can understand the change of the Liquid Twitter account since you can't filter tweets you don't wanna see, etc.
But it felt like everyone was pleased with how the current setups. Oh well, at least the new site posting looks pretty and has team discussion threads. Could be worse I guess, not too sure yet.

Could we keep a link to liquidDota in the top bar, at least ? ATM there isn't one.

This'll probably be the nail in the coffin for my interest in Sc2. I mostly come here for Dota nowadays but sometimes check out Sc2 stuff if it catches my eye. Don't really see me coming to Teamliquid.net much anymore !
Though maybe blogs and community and such will get me here often enough !

They should keep all the forum tabs on the TeamLiquid site but when you click the topic; it redirects you to their sister sites.
I think this should be something to consider.

Although i can think of a lot of advantages of creating a new site, I still feel a bit sad. For me, personally it wouldn't make a difference, as i don't follow dota2 at all, but i still don't want people to go to another site. Good luck though
You might want to fix the filter buttons though, as it still displays the 3 games, instead of 2.

will we soon have a liquidesports which just combines every of the liquid sites?

i thought liquid abandoned dota 2 when i couldnt find any dota sections lol
